THE ENERGIZER June 7/85 Karl Rigelhof

I've got a sieve for a memory
And fear is my greatest enemy
That one day I will find
What was lost within my mind

Sometimes I feel like a turtle
Trying to leap over life's next hurdle
And missing by just a hair
Who ever said this race was fair
Never played the game

I've got this pain in my neck
My side, my back, I'm a wreck
My body can't take this punishment
In the name of fun is spent
All of my energies

Sometimes I wish I was a Ray-O-Vac
(Just) plug me in and recharge my battery pack
To power the chips in my data bank
If I were wiser I would turn my own crank

Energize me
Don't criticize me
For what I do
(For the way I live)
Your words won't make me any wiser
Just hook me up into
The energizer
